I have an Amiga 2000HD and am running AmigaDOS 1.3 with Workbench. To alter
the printer preferences to my print device, a Panasonic 1124, select the
printer preferences icon under the Preferences Drawer.  After I poke down to
select Epson Q (for device), I then select "OK" and another screen displays.
At this screen, I poke SAVE and then the screen goes blank and the power
light begins to flicker.  I then receive a guru message of a software error
and am requested to depress the left mouse key.  The system then reboots and
comes up fine --- but alas the printer settings are not saved.  I am able to
succesfully alter the print settings when I use the preferences icon under
the Preferences Drawer.  Can you not directly alter print settings through
use of this Printer Preferences icon?

Any help here is appreciated.

(Is this a bug in 1.3?)
